Bulletin summary

We have issued a new Permit to Take Water for construction dewatering and long-term seepage for a project located at 470, 490, and 530 Wilson Avenue, Toronto, Ontario. The project was a proposed residential development. Permit No. 6131-BSELKZ was issued on September 8, 2020 for a period of 10 years.

Why consultation isn't required

On April 1, 2020, the Ontario Government made a temporary regulation to respond to the COVID-19 outbreak. Ontario Regulation 115/20 exempted all proposals for policies, acts, regulations and instruments from posting requirements under the EBR.

Ontario Regulation 115/20 was revoked on June 15, 2020, however, we are posting this decision as a bulletin as because the proposal was posted on June 12, 2020 while Ontario Regulation 115/20 was in effect.

Although consultation was not required, the ministry did consult with the public on this proposal by posting ERO# 019-1916 for public comment from June 12, 2020 to July 12, 2020. To ensure transparency, the ministry is providing details of its decision and the effects of consultation on decision-making in this notice.
